Listening to Chicago scanner. EMS plan 1 at 31st and Indiana near Chicago downtown. A suspicious suitcase was thrown from a moving vehicle around 10:00 CST. Package was not able to be x-rayed due to lining inside os suitcase. Bomb techs opened the suitcase finding a liter sized container with liquid, hoses and wires. Evacuations are underway.

Sounds suspicious alright.
To: Right_Handed_Writer
That doesn't sound like anything sophisticated, does it?
Why are they evacuating? What could it be?

Meth lab? Quite possible. Of course those things can go BOOM just as much as easily as a bomb.

Let us know ASAP when you hear any updates!!

Probably chemical, bio or a hoax

Anything else?
Could be serious, or a very un-funny hoax.

Amazing... if this does turn out to be real (and I hope not, for my country's sake), the Democrats will never be able to accuse Bush of raising alerts for political purposes.
Of course, then again, they would claim that Bush planted it.
Prayers for our country's safety tonight.

Local radio is reporting on 'police activity' in that area. No warnings issued.

The fact that it was shielded from x-rays is a good tip off. I bet they have something this time. I would not take any deep breaths around it.

Quite possible. Of course those things can go BOOM just as much as easily as a bomb. I'd imagine so. Ether + sparks/flames = Darwin Award
